  1. The Wrasslin' thread

    If Undertaker ever loses at Wrestlemania I will eat my hat. If he loses to Shelton Benjomin I will chop off my manhood and eat that. For Realz...
  2. The Wrasslin' thread

    Anyone catch TNA Genesis last night? Awesome show bar the last 2 matches. Great X Division title match and womens match. Another epic between Angle and Jarrett.
  3. The Wrasslin' thread

    Watched Raw for the first time in nearly a year yesterday and my god it's absolutly atrocious. I think it's the worst I've ever seen WWE... Unimpressed.
  4. The Wrasslin' thread

    I don't think Matt was ever officially fired though was he, he was just kept off TV for a while as Edge was on a huge main event title push. It was made public the fact that WWE had "fired" Matt but was this for real or was it a work? Just while they thought of what to do because he was just off the back of the momentum from the V1 gimmick and surely actually firing him for real would have given him a HUGE legal case against WWE. I still love what the WWE did with this storyline and I have a truly massive amount of respect for Hardy for actually going through with it and still going to work while they were both there.
  5. The Wrasslin' thread

    I don't think Matt was fired for real, I think it was to try an convince the internet fans that the story was real. i.e. he took independant bookings. He first appeared on WWE Byte This as a caller when Lita was a guest on the show and it was all re-ignited from there, but if you ask me it was all a (very, very good) work. Best storyline since the attitude era.

    Real life girlfriend I think
  7. The Wrasslin' thread

    I agree, it's most annoying and really hurts the company He's already signed a deal that will place him in the main event, apparently.
  8. The Wrasslin' thread

    It's not just that, it's the fact that they all look the same and are required to have an exaggerated chest in order to get anywhere. There's no personality in it, watch the women in TNA and then you'll see what I mean. I'd even go as far as saying the women wrestling is the best thing about TNA. The in ring standards are high, there is a varied mix of performers and the storylines are consistantly very good. I can't quote on the matches in WWE because I haven't watched it for so long but when I last tuned in it was pretty poor and most of them couldn't wrestle. Nothing compared to the glory days of Trish, Lita and Victoria. She's just signed a new contract with WWE and will debut in a few weeks. It's a shame she's gone from TNA becuase she was a good champion and had an amazing fued with Awesome Kong.

    Courtney Cox = not hot
  10. The Wrasslin' thread

    I stopped watching WWE about a year ago. I hate the way it's aimed at kids, its stupid conservative political messages (ESPECIALLY the bloody "troops"). It's obsession with image in terms of wrestlers (I find it degrading and apaulling how the women are portrayed and represented) and corporate branding. It's not wrestling anymore, its a joke. Also, John Cena pisses me off big time. Started watching TNA in April last year and while it's pretty hit and miss it's definatly better than the WWE. I've seen some outstanding matches in the past year, some great talent and Kurt Angle is still the best in the world, even if the storylines are a little poor.Going to see it in Manchester a week on Tuesday and I can't wait. Seeing the likes of Samoa Joe, AJ Styles and all the X-Division contenders in person will be amazing and TNA apparently put on an amazing live show. Plus Mick Foley will be there!
  11. LittleBigPlanet Thread

    Played this for the first time yesterday at a friends house (I don't have a PS3.). Absolutly loved it, have heard nothing about this game but we did a couple of races and a mirrors edge level! There was also an extremely long level based on Zelda which was incredible. I can't believe I hadn't heard of this I want a PS3 so badly now just for this game. Does the novelty wear off? And actually how hard is it to make a decent level?
  12. vga cable for 360

    On my TV HDMI has awful lag and bleeding colours, it doesn't on VGA. No idea why. I think I have a crappy HDMI cable.
  13. vga cable for 360

    In my opinion official Microsoft VGA pisses all over HDMI and Component. I have one and it looks awesome on my TV.
  14. Girl Stuff- what would you do?

    All I'll sat from past experience is the grass is always greener on the otherside. Me and my girlfriend hit a massive rut. I effectivly told her where to go and went off with someone else. Only took me a week to realise it was a mistake and I would do anything to get her back now but it's too late. Think long and hard about it before you do anything and my advice is definately try and sort out any problems with your current gf now because you never know what could happen. An attraction is just that, it could be that you have very little in common and if you've been with your girlfriend for 3 years there's obviously something special there. Relationships go up and down and 3 years is about the time they hit their lowest point (apparently)... If you love her ride it through and see where you are at the end of it. If you're unsure, have a talk with her about your feelings. Hope that helps.
  15. Take-Two [this is getting really old!]

    Idiots. It's their loss as much as ours though.

  17. Marbles! Balance Challenge

    Must say I can't wait for this one, the new features sound awesome! I loved the first game and it took my ages to get 100%, which I did eventually. I'm falling back in love with my Wii again!
  18. Wii General Discussion

    Funny how the Mii's are by far the easiest to recognise.
  19. Nearly games

    It's one of my favourite Wii games. I loved it at launch and I still do, yes the controls can be poor but it felt original, had awesome levels and style. The graphics were brilliant coupled with the destructable environments. The music and atmosphere was awesome too. A big surprise when I played through it after hearing all the negatvity. I think NGamer magazines score of 90% was justified, if a tad too high maybe 85%
  20. "New Play Control" Games!

    I'm really looking foward to these!
  21. I salute you for this mentality, sir. More is not always better! I just lost my job so I'll be going back down to one console soon.
  22. Nearly games

    I agree on SSX Blur. SSX3 was class but Blur was just lacking something @ Stuwii - This is why people avoid EA franchises, especially need for speed
  23. Exactly how I felt, it was a total chore to play, and a lot of the fun (albeit unrealistic) things from the fantastic San Andreas were removed. I think GTA IV highlights exactly why realism should not be a driving force in game creation. People play games to escape realism and have fun. I dunno, maybe I'm biased, after all what would I know, I'm just a Nintendo Fanboy
  24. I think it's been an average year. I played the hell out of Brawl for a good few months but the online sucked. Huge mention goes out to No More Heores, fresh, innovative and such a bold personality! I loved manhunt 2 as well! I've enjoyed a few things on 360, mainly fable 2 but once I finished it, it seemed a bit non-eventful and I haven't been back since. Grid was OK for a while. I'm getting fed up of sequals and have very little cash so I haven't played many of the newer games but half the 360 library I won't touch because I'm sick to death of the shooter and the 3rd person action adventure. GTA IV was the biggest dissapointment for me, the biggest load of crap I have ever played. I honesty don't know where the $100million went into this because it's a step BACKWARDS from San Andreas. Horrible, horrible game. Is it just me or are many of the big budget sequals on 360/PS3 just becoming "interactive movies" where cutscenes and graphics get so much attention while everything else is less than last gen or more of the same? Sort it out, innovate. On a happy note, since getting it in the post from the US last week, I've spent close to 30 hours on Animal Crossing Wii, second most played game of the year and I'm loving it! I think I need to get a DS, that seems to be where a lot of the action is now. Although I cannot wait for next years Wii line up. Conduit? Yes please, Voice chat? Yes please, NMH2? Yes please, Expanded WiiWare and VC? yes please, Madworld? Yes Please! :P
